[SR-Users] Re: Performance issues with KEMI

Native config resulted in over 10k calls per second without any drops. I made some adjustments to the python config, looks like there was an issue with the way I had been using return. That is handling almost 10k calls now. However, when adding in other logic such as database calls using python libraries, back to a few dozen calls before the queue grows and drops occur. If performance is expected to be close to native, then I probably need to continue identifying configuration issues. -dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* Daniel W.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe I haven't converted this test to native configuration yet. That is my next step to rule out any general issues. I've never experienced any performance issues like this before and since this was my first test using KEMI I assumed it was related in some fashion. I've read through performance optimization related posts and documents that I've been able to find. -dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *From:* Henning Westerholt &lt;hw(a)gilawa.com&gt; *Sent:* Sunday, January 12, 2025 03:52 *To:* Kamailio (SER) - Users Mailing List &lt;sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org&gt; *Cc:* Daniel W.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe Hello Daniel,   I am wondering if your issues are specific to KEMI, e.g. if you’ve also tried the same script logic with a native cfg and observing similar numbers? If it’s a simple script, you can maybe just repeat the same test. There were benchmarks done for KEMI some years ago which only showed a small performance difference.   Or do you have generic performance issues which you just happened to observe in your test with KEMI? In this case it would be more of a generic performance optimization topic.   Cheers,   Henning   -- Henning Westerholt – https://skalatan.de/blog/ <https://skalatan.de/blog/> Kamailio services – https://gilawa.com <https://gilawa.com/>   *From:* Daniel W.

Graham &lt;dan(a)cmsinter.net&gt; *Subject:* [SR-Users] Performance issues with KEMI   Testing out KEMI functionality and running into performance issues. If I exceed 150 calls per second the network receive queue grows and Kamailio is unable to keep up with requests and they begin dropping.   KEMI script for testing is just doing a stateless reply to invites.   Using python3s module.   I've played with Kamailio child processes and memory allocations, but there is no impact. I've also attempted some buffer / memory tweaking at the OS level, again with no impact. Increasing CPU cores and even running the test on bare metal results in the same.   Example of receive queue at 150 calls per second - Netid State       Recv-Q      Send-Q   Local Address:Port   udp   UNCONN      337280      0       x.x.x.x:5060   Just wondering if anyone has experienced similar issues or has an example of the performance they are seeing before I continue down this path.   Thanks,   - dan __________________________________________________________ Kamailio - Users Mailing List - Non Commercial Discussions -- sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org To unsubscribe send an email to sr-users-leave(a)lists.kamailio.org Important: keep the mailing list in the recipients, do not reply only to the sender!
